Glad to hear you had a nice cruise but the trailer procedure sounds a
bit dicey.

Why is it that you can't back the trailer into the driveway with your
vehicle? If you have space enough to pull it out, you should have
room to back it in.


It's a lot easier to pull a boat on a trailer straight out of a tight
parking space than it is to back that boat on a trailer back into a
tight parking space. I'm not familiar with the width or conditions of
Don's driveway and neither are you, and there may be circumstances that
make it more difficult than you surmise.

Perhaps on one of your next cruises to places you've been a million
times, you can expand that voyage up to Nova Scotia, have Don meet you
at a local marina, and then show him how perfectly you can back up his
rig in his driveway.

Make sure someone videotapes it.
